Episode Details

Melbourne’s Yarraville Cricket Club is in crisis as women’s teams face degrading, unsafe facilities—exposed showers, no locks, shared spaces with men’s teams—forcing players to skip games and deterring new girls from joining. Despite promises of upgrades since 2023, the council’s project is stalled by funding and shifting priorities, with only temporary fixes planned. The club president accuses local government of neglect, while state officials say it’s a council responsibility—with no funding requested. For athletes, basic dignity and safety are being sacrificed on the altar of bureaucracy.
